My plus 2 was rebuilt 89/90. What thread do you think was the most probable at that time for the rear flexi's to hard lines as i need to replace.
SJ050J0005 - BRAKE HOSE SJ sports car lotus parts number, description does not have thread reference. As im In NZ, need to obviously get it right as most of the spares market here is American.
thanks

Street,
3/8”x24 tpi (3/8”UNF) and 10mm x 1mm pitch are very similar, both are used in braking systems, I have seen these two systems mixed up. Measure carefully and use thread gauges to check the pitch.

I think the mix only comes as far as i know with the 16pb front Calipers on the later +2 cars.
On the connections yoy can sometimes see the "contiguous" circles for unified or maybe "m" for metric
